Temple of the Dragon (Huaco el Dragon) Tours and Tickets
Temple of the Dragon (Huaco el Dragon) is an immaculately preserved Chimú temple just outside Trujillo. The pyramid-shaped adobe structure features intricate frieze murals depicting rainbows, dragons, and figures that have valiantly stood the test of time. Less known than other Chimú sites, this anti-seismic temple is an engineering marvel.

Although the Temple of...
Although the Temple of the Dragon was closed, the rest of the tour was great. Everything tied together so it is impossible to pick only one. And our guide was very knowledgeable on the representations pictured on each site, how the sites were used and the history of each location.

A great tour of Moche and Chimu sites
My son and I had a wonderful day with Oscar. He was very enthusiastic about the history of Peru and this made for an interesting and informative tour. We highly recommend both the tour and definitely Oscar!

Good English speaking tour, lots to see!
Really enjoyed this tour, so much to learn about! Had a good English speaking guide that was pretty knowledgeable, and the van driver was excellent (important in this city). Such great sites to see! Recommended!

Dive into pre-Incan civilization
This tour is a great intro to two pre-Incan civilizations that are virtually unknown outside of Peru. Plus a side trip to Huanchaco and an excellent seaside lunch.
Our guide was very knowledgeable and his enthusiasm was very contagious.
Great tour!
